well, I have, but I never really completed the job, as it got too cold to spraypaint :(

But here's Cajual's interior:

I've been working on stuff over time when the interior is out of the car. Make sure you get that paint that bonds to plastic, otherwise it can chip over time.

This is the best pic that I have, the pic makes it look lighter than it is though:

I removed my trim and covered it with a carbon fiber vinyl

I almost did the carbon fiber vinyl overlay,
but Avery recomends a flat surface.
(AVERY make the carbon fiber vinyl,
but doesn't say what the durability is, it's a specialty film
just to let you know that 3M is 5 years.)

Clear carbon fiber A3832-S
White carbon fiber A3830-S
Black carbon fiber A3834-S


BlueMan, how is the vinyl holding up?
how long has it been on?
How is the conformability to the simple curvers?

it's been on for a cuple of weeks.
the curves were easy to cover.
it just takes some time to get out the wrinkles and the bubbles...

Cajual has a pretty neat looking interior (looks even better in person!). Talk to him for some info/tips.

I'm kinda hesitant on anything permanent, but maybe I'm just a wuss... :)

^ I agree with Happydude on both accounts. I can't seem to find a colorscheme that I like (I'm thinking of going back to stock completely), but I'm very impressed with Cajual's, it looks friggen sharp. Silver wouldn't fit in with anything on my car though.
